The engine often stalls during a heavy rain or after running through puddles of water. The dealer told me it neded a "revised air cleaner". if I understand the problem correctly water is sucked up through the air cleaner causing the engine to stall. The revised air cleaner is a different design which prevents this from happening.

Fter a heavy rain and if car goes through a puddle of water the engine will stall. Consumer says engine will start back up again. Took to dealer, and they said consumer needed a revised air cleaner.
